​​​
David Peterson ​
He's called the caretaker of traditionl buegrass and country music for a reason. He's an independent recording artist whose powerful voice is full of Bill Monroe, Jimmy Martin and Hank Williams' blues.
​
A Boston native, he moved to Nashville 30 years ago, and has become an iconic and well-loved performer, both solo, and with his band 1946. His more famous peers, like Stuart Duncan, Vince Gill, David Grisman and Sam Bush, love to record live with him, gathered around a single mic. His albums are joyful and powerful, and full of gospel.
​​
​
Josh Williams
One of the premier bluegrass musicians of our time. 3-time IBMA Guitar Player of the Year, a virtuoso on banjo, fiddle and mandolin, he also has one of the best voices in bluegrass/country music.
This conversation was heartfelt and emotional at times. It eventually turned to Tony Rice, with whom Josh played for 5 years, and shared a friendship for twenty.
​
He shared lots of Tony Rice stories and fond memories, some funny, some painful. Josh remained in awe of Tony until the end, and you can feel the love and sadness in this conversation. He still misses him. As we all do.
